History

Jindai Station opened on December 11, 1921 as a station on the Obonai keiben-sen, serving the village of Jindai, Akita. The line was nationalized the following year, becoming part of the Japanese Government Railway (JGR) network, which became the Japan National Railways (JNR) after World War II. The station was absorbed into the JR East network upon the privatization of the JNR on April 1, 1987. A new station building was completed in March 1997.
